got this from the read out

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
vlc : Depends: vlc-nox (= 1.1.11-2+b3) but 1.1.11-2+b2 is to be installed
Recommends: vlc-plugin-notify (= 1.1.11-2+b3) but it is not going to be installed
Recommends: vlc-plugin-pulse (= 1.1.11-2+b3) but it is not going to be installed
E: Broken packages

Hint: If you ever installed packages from the (in)famous Debian multimedia third-party repo, this will have an effect on these audio packages during d-u.

Debian is really going for patented but free multimedia stuff atm. I switched ffmpeg back to Debian proper as well with the new vlc. Full encoding range in Audacity, and third party ffmpeg used to break Audacity twice a year. So, I am happy!
